Argument Leads To Man Getting Shot In Greenwich Village: Police

GREENWICH VILLAGE, NY — A 32-year-old man was shot three times on May 13 after getting in a late-night argument with an unknown attacker in Greenwich Village, according to police. On Saturday, the New York Police Department released pictures for the first time of a person wanted in connection to the shooting.

At 11:20 p.m. on May 13, two men got into an argument in front of a building at 126 Waverly Place, police said.

The shooter fled the scene, and the victim took himself to Bellevue Hospital in stable condition, police said.

Here is the picture NYPD released Saturday of the man wanted in connection to the shooting.
